If you complain of pain during movement, the joint is swollen and red, you feel a stretch in the injured area - most likely your diagnosis is bursitis.
Bursitis
Bursitis is a painful condition that affects the small, fluid-filled sacs — called bursae that cushion the bones, tendons and muscles near your joints.
The most common locations for bursitis are in the shoulder, elbow and hip.
Warning
In some clinical cases it is necessary to assess the patient's condition by a physician and prescribe a course of treatment only on the basis of appropriate diagnosis.
Self-medication is not allowed in case of the following symptoms:
- Disabling joint pain
- Sudden inability to move a joint
- Excessive swelling, redness, bruising or a rash in the affected area
- A fever
- Sharp or shooting pain, especially when you exercise or exert yourself Lifestyle and home remedies
Measures you can take to relieve the pain of bursitis include:
- Rest and don't overuse the affected area.

- Apply dry or moist heat
- Cushion your knees if you sleep on your side by placing a small pillow between your legs.
